I also suffer from severe depression, and I have my entire life. It's not something you can shake off. Treatment can help a little, but I don't think it will ever completly go away. I wish you the best, and thank you for the positive feed back.

I've been in the grips of depression and this is just what it feels like. You have a way with words and have done a wonderful job of expressing it here. Others just don't understand. "Just snap out of it" they say like people choose to be depressed. Well done.
